June 7, 2018 - Annual Public Safety Appreciation Luncheon
Rebuilding Sandy Hook: How the security design team worked with the community, municipal leaders, and public safety officials to build the new Sandy Hook school
Speaker: Philip Santore, Managing Principal, DVS Security


This is a topic that affects everyone. We all have children, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, or children of close friends who are in schools every day. Phil Santore will share the process of developing the security program and associated architectural and engineering approach to the design of the new Sandy Hook School. His team was expected to deliver a new school that was considered safe while maintaining the school’s primary mission of education. Phil’s DVS design team worked closely with the architects, engineers, parents, and the Town to develop a security program that met multiple expectations. Phil will review key elements which lead to the success of the project:

  • Support of the mission
  • A balanced security program
  • Managing people
  • Invisible protective elements
  • An integrated identification and response program
  • Defense-in-depth strategies

Please join us and learn how rebuilding this school helped a community heal from a devastating tragedy.
